Objective To analyze the drug resistance and genomic characteristics of clinically isolated hypermuco-viscous Klebsiella pneumoniae(hmKp).Methods Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from clinical specimens from the sentinel hospitals of National Pathogen Identification Network in Huai'an City from 2019 to 2023 were collected,strains were identified by VITEK 2 Compact,mucus phenotype was determined by string test,resistance of hmKp was determined by microbroth dilution method.Molecular typing was conducted by whole-genome sequencing tech-nology,annotation of virulence and resistance genes carried by strains was performed.Results A total of 60 strains of hmKp were collected,mainly isolated from sputum specimens(33.33％)and blood specimens(28.33％).The average genome size of 60 strains was 5.6 Mb,with an average GC content of 57.09％.Multilocus sequence typing(MLST)showed that there were 28 ST types,with the dominant ST types being ST1 1(11.67％),ST15(11.67％),and ST412(10.00％).Core genome MLST(cgMLST)analysis revealed that some strains were highly homologous,and no outbreak strains were found.Multidrug-resistant strains accounted for 60.00％,while imipe-nem-resistant strains accounted for 28.33％.64 types of resistance genes were carried,84.38％of which were loca-ted on mobile element.The carriage rates of fosfomycin-related resistance genes and extended-spectrum β-lactam an-tibiotic-related resistance genes were relatively high in the strains,at 100％and 98.33％,respectively.Among car-bapenem-resistance gene blaKPC-2,21.67％was carried by ST11,ST1,and ST15 strains,among bla NDM-5 gene,3.33％was carried by ST76 strain.A total of 101 virulence genes were carried,most were Colibactin and type Ⅵsecretion system-related virulence genes.All strains carried capsule synthesis regulation-related genes(rcsA,rcsB),efflux pump-related genes(acrA,acrB),and enterobacterin-related genes(entABCEF,fepABCDFG,fes).Conclusion Clinically isolated hmKp in Huai'an exhibits multidrug resistance,with dominant ST types ST11,ST15,and ST412,carrying multiple horizontally transferable resistance and virulence genes,prevention and control measures should be strengthened.

Objective To analyze the distribution and epidemiological characteristics of influenza pathogens in Huai^’an City from 2017-2019, and to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control of influenza. Methods The influenza-like illness (ILI) and outbreaks data was collected from China Influenza Surveillance Information System from 2017 to 2019. A descriptive analysis method was used to analyze the influenza data. Results A total of 103 082 ILI cases were reported in Huai^’an City from 2017 to 2019, accounting for 8.96% of the total outpatient and emergency department visits. Winter and spring were the seasons for the high incidence of influenza, and children under 15 years old were the key population with high incidence. A total of 37 influenza outbreaks occurred in the city, with 774 reported cases. The epidemics mainly occurred in kindergartens, elementary schools, and junior high schools. There were 6,730 samples tested in the laboratory, 1,093 were positive for nucleic acid test, and the positive rate was 16.24%. Of the 1,093 positive samples, 417 were tested positive for H1N1 type, accounting for 38.15%; 251 were positive for seasonal H3 type, accounting for 22.96%; 274 were positive for Victoria subtype, accounting for 25.07%; and 151 were positive for Yamagata subtype, accounting for 13.82%. The types of dominant influenza strains alternated, and sometimes several types of influenza viruses coexisted. Conclusion Influenza often occurs in schools and has obvious seasonality. It is recommended that high-risk groups be vaccinated with quadrivalent influenza vaccine.
